CLEANING UP MY SCRAP PILE
While working on my PMC I find that sometimes I have to scrap pieces that have broken, get frustrated with or something did not turn out just right.
I decided to go back to that pile and work with some of the pieces.
This Necklace was done with the leaves that kept breaking.... the tips broke off.
so I just went with the flow and made a necklace and called it Falling Leaves.

This is some of my scrap pile.
On the top piece I fired the piece to hot, it melted and slumped the glass.

On the bottom piece the hinge kept braking off.

Dark Chocolate and Cream
I don't know why this makes me think of Chocolate and cream but I had to call it something....
After setting it in the PMC I went to work on the chain and decided to carry the 1/2 and 1/2 look up to the chain, using a few fun looking smaller buttons to accent the center one.
I was going through my button collection and this one just popped out at me.
It was laying on my table for a couple of days and I decided to get to work on it.

It is at the Nebraska State Fair, in The Grow Nebraska store FOR SALE!
